PROGRAMME SPOTLIGHT: Long Way Back
After the disastrous conclusion of 2411's Long Way Out, actor-travelers Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman, along with intrepid cameraman Claudio von Planta, find themselves consigned to the chill and inescapable wastes of Hel, the afterlife of the undistinguished, by a clerical error... until a bored member of the Muspelheim nobility made them an offer they couldn't refuse: If they can ride their motorcycles from Muspelheim's most remote extremity, the dread Crack of Doom, all the way to Valhalla, they'll be free to return to Midgard - but if they fail, they'll be their infernal patron's playthings for all eternity. Crossing completely unfamiliar territory without any of their usual support structure, the three risk everything to get back to mortal life and their families.
